Delivery Coaching

Delivery coaching helps teams build and learn fast in collaborative and safe environments. We’re doing one on one mentoring in continuous delivery / DevOps right along side pragmatic planning, measurement, tracking, validation and learning practices. We’ve been successfully coaching delivery across companies for over 15 years.

Developing Coaches

Successful, long-term adoption of product agility requires people within the organization to lead and help others adopt product agility values and practices. DevJam coaches intentionally identify and develop internal coaches for each engagement. Development takes the form of formal coursework, individual mentoring and more. We won’t leave you high and dry when your coaching engagement with us is complete.

Scaling Product Learning

Scaling is the ability to deliver products or platforms that require coordinated delivery across multiple delivery teams. Whether it’s a single product delivered by multiple teams, a platform delivered by multiple teams, or a suite of products delivered by multiple teams in different configurations for different clients, our coaches have been there and done that. We’ve been scaling agility for years. We know how to apply product agility at scale and can help you correct common pitfalls like long testing cycles and product design problems at the end of release trains.
